  • a drawback posed by the tables with tilting tops of known type lies in the construction complexity deriving from the need to provide different bearing structures depending on the size of the supporting plane to which they are applied.
  • the main object of the present invention is thus to solve or at least partially overcome the problems mentioned above that characterize the bearing structures of known type.
  • the present invention is based on the general consideration that the problems found in the state of the art can be at least partially overcome by means of a bearing structure for a supporting surface that can be adapted to supporting surfaces of different types.
  • the subject of the present invention is thus a bearing structure for a supporting surface comprising:
  • connection means suited to connect said bearing means to said supporting surface in two or more connection areas
  • connection means for moving said connection means, suited to allow them to be positioned in a first position corresponding to a condition of usage of said supporting surface and in a second position corresponding to a condition in which said supporting surface is not in use
  • the structure comprises adaptation means suited to allow said bearing structure to adapt to different dimensions of said supporting surface.
  • the adaptation means comprise displacement means suited to move the contact areas of the bearing means near or away from one another.
  • the adaptation means preferably comprise displacement means suited to move the connection areas near or away from one another.
  • the displacement means comprise telescopic means.

  • the displacement means comprise means for rotating the connection means.
  • the structure preferably comprises locking means associated with the displacement means in order to allow them to be locked in the first position.
  • the locking means comprise two or more manoeuvring elements arranged on different areas of the bearing structure.
  • the adaptation means preferably comprise displacement means suited to move the manoeuvring elements near or away from one another.
  • the bearing means comprise two or more legs and the adaptation means comprise one or more interconnection elements of the telescopic type.
  • the condition of usage of the supporting surface suitably corresponds to the horizontal position of the supporting surface.
  • the condition in which the supporting surface is not in use preferably corresponds to the substantially vertical arrangement of the supporting surface.
  • it concerns a furniture element comprising a supporting surface and a bearing structure for the supporting surface, wherein the bearing structure is of the type described above.
  • Said furniture element is preferably constituted by a table.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a table comprising a bearing structure according to a first embodiment of the present invention in the usage position;
  • Figure 2 shows the table with the bearing structure of Figure 1 in a position ready for storage
  • FIG. 3 shows three tables of the type shown in Figure 2 in the storage position
  • Figure 4 shows a partially exploded view of the table shown in Figure 1;
  • Figure 5 shows a partially exploded view of Figure 4
  • FIG. 6 shows a partially exploded view of the bearing structure shown in Figure 5;
  • Figure 8 shows the detail shown in Figure 7 in a different operating condition
  • Figure 9 shows an exploded view of Figure 7.
  • the present invention can be especially but not exclusively used in the field of furniture.
  • the present invention can be especially applied in the production of tables with tilting supporting plane.
  • the present invention will be described below with particular reference to a bearing structure for a table with tilting supporting plane. It should however be noted that the present invention is not intended to be used exclusively for a table; on the contrary, the present invention can also be advantageously applied in all the cases where it is necessary to use a supporting plane that can be easily stored when not in use.
  • bearing structure 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is represented when applied to a supporting plane 50 to define a table 100.
  • the table 100 is shown in its usage configuration, with the supporting plane 50 in horizontal position.
  • the table 100 is shown in the configuration ready for storage, that is, with the supporting plane 50 in vertical or substantially vertical position. In the storage position shown in Figure 2, in fact, the table 100 has reduced overall dimensions compared to the usage position, and it can be comfortably stored together with other similar tables, as shown in Figure 3.
  • the table 100 comprises a bearing structure 1 arranged under a supporting plane 50, as shown also in Figures 4 and 5.
  • the supporting plane 50 can consist of a panel in the desired shape, rectangular in the case at hand, and made of a material suitable for its specific use, for example wood, aluminium, glass, etc.

  • the bearing structure 1 comprises an upper area 2 for connection to the supporting plane 50 and a lower area 3 for resting the structure on the ground.
  • the lower area 3 comprises contact points 4a-4d, four in the embodiment illustrated herein, suited to give stability to the table 100.
  • the contact areas 4a-4d are constituted by the ends of corresponding legs 6a-6d and are substantially arranged at the vertices of a rectangle.
  • the ends of the legs 6a-6d are preferably provided with wheels 7a-7d suited to facilitate the movements of the table 100.
  • at least one of said wheels 7a-7d is provided with a brake element, not illustrated in the figures, suited to lock the table 100 in position once it has been positioned in the desired place.
  • the table legs may not be provided with wheels.
  • the four legs 6a-6b are advantageously connected to each other in pairs.
  • the upper portion 8a, 8c of a leg is joined to the upper portion 8b, 8d of the other leg arranged on the same side of the table 100 in a corresponding union area 9, 10.
  • connection means are joined to the supporting plane 50 through connection means, indicated as a whole by 15.
  • the connection means 15 comprise two side brackets 16, 17 suited to be integrally joined to the supporting plane 50, for example through fixing screws not illustrated in the figures.
  • said connection can be carried out through different and suitable connection means, for example by glueing, with snap-in connection means, with closure through clamps, clips or rivets.
  • the two side brackets 16, 17 are connected to each other through a horizontal connection structure 18, described more clearly below.
  • the side brackets 16, 17 and the horizontal connection structure 18 can be rotated with respect to the legs 6a-6d in order to allow the supporting plane 50 to be arranged in the horizontal and vertical usage positions.
  • the side brackets 16, 17 and the horizontal connection structure 18 can be rotated around an axis X with respect to the horizontal connection structure 11 of the legs 6a-6d.
  • each side bracket 16, 17 is articulated through a rotation pin 22, 23 with a corresponding projecting bearing element 20, 21 of the horizontal connection structure 11 of the legs 6a-6d.
  • the supporting plane 50 can thus be arranged from the horizontal position to the vertical position, and vice versa, through its rotation around the rotation pins 22, 23. Said rotation pins 22, 23 are therefore aligned along the above mentioned rotation axis X.
  • a locking device 24 allows the supporting plane 50 to be maintained safely and securely in its horizontal position.
  • the same device 24, which can be operated manually, allows the supporting plane 50 to be released and brought to the vertical position.
  • the locking device 24 comprises two coupling elements, only one of which is shown in the Figures from 7 to 9 and indicated by number 25, suited to be engaged in corresponding coupling seats 26, 27 obtained in the projecting bearing element 20, 21.
  • Each coupling element 25 can be positioned in a coupling configuration, as shown in Figure 7, in which it is housed in the corresponding coupling seat 26, 27 in the projecting bearing element 20, 21. In this coupling configuration, the supporting plane 50 is maintained securely and stably in horizontal position.
  • the coupling elements 25 can be rotated through corresponding manoeuvring elements 28, 29 constituted by handles.
  • the operation of one of the two handles 28, 29 allows the rotation of both the coupling elements 25 in order to enable them to be released from the coupling seat 26, 27 in the bearing element 20, 21, as shown in Figure 8, and thus make the supporting plane 50 free to be rotated around the rotation pins 22, 23.
  • the horizontal connection structure 11 of the union areas 9, 10 of the two pairs of legs 6a, 6b and 6c, 6d preferably comprises two tubular portions 11a, 1 lb that can be coupled with and engaged in each other in a telescopic way.
  • the two tubular portions 11a, l ib are preferably maintained at the desired distance by means of suitable locking elements, not shown in the figure, like for example locking pins, fixing screws, with closure through clamps, clips or rivets.
  • Said horizontal connection structure 11 of the telescopic type allows the distance between the legs 6a-6d of the bearing structure 1 to be regulated. This makes it possible to adapt the same bearing structure 1 to different measures of the supporting plane 50 guaranteeing the correct distance between the legs 6a-6d and the consequent stability of the table 100.
  • the horizontal connection structure 18 of the side brackets 16, 17 preferably comprises two portions 18a, 18b that can be coupled to each other in a telescopic way.
  • the two portions 18a, 18b have a conjugated V-shaped profile.
